	In Response To: Re: play rubicon fast.. (Steve Levinson) : Goran, do you mean the Salinger Plank or the Pfhor Plank, or both. Was this : on TC, Max or Normal (or Kindergarten)? This makes a particularly big : difference. When you say 1:30, do you mean continuously, or level-by-level : (command-alt-begin). That also makes a BIG difference, as you can recover : from a horrible level by starting from scratch on the next. I go a bit on the pfhor plank (wanted to play molten hydro...) and then switch back to the salinger plank.(want the happy ending and easier levels) I play it on normal, Tc would take to much time. Note that I kill only when it is neccessary, some monsters should be ignored. 1.30 was playing it through with out con-alt starts. This is a lot easier with all patternbuffers and weapons,ammo health you get from various levels. : I mention that technique in my Rubicon Secrets Guide . I have to give Sidoh : credit for that one, though. Perhaps you can write a Rubicon Done Quick : guide for us all, after you finish the Yota Saga . : BTW - I'd like to see your numbers for what I call a “Rubimax” pathway, which : provides the maximum number of levels in a single game (without looping). : If you're going for speed, that means that you have to shut down the : Chimera's reactor, since you don't want to wait 15 minutes for it to : explode, which means that you'll miss 3 levels in the Pfhor plank. You : then have a choice - you can get back on the teleporters in Gators of NY : , do the Pfhor Plank through The Ascension Factor , then flip back to the : Salinger Plank for the rest of the game, saving humanity in the end, or : you do the reverse, leaving humanity to the mercy of the Dangi Corp. The : choice is yours. I wait those 15 minutes :( (but its less than 15) And when I say finishing the game I mean to get to one of the final levels and complete them. check my list of time on levels: 2 levels left and the total time so far is 56min, so it would be possible to finish it in even an hour. all we dream you and roziante is not time here, but I have estimated a maximum time of 9 minutes for them.(maybe thats to much) -------------------------------------------------------- extra time[min] 9(7) total: 56,34 Arrival - 25.25 01 - Honk if You’re an Underpaid Cyborg time: 3.40 02 - Like Flies on a Corpse time: 1.15 03 - Five Finger Discount time: 10.20 38 - I’d rather be a lute fisk time: 2.00 40 - We dream you time: 1.10 04 - Hairy legs time: 7.00 -------------------------------------------------------- On Pfhor Prime - 5.05 25 - Sea of Slime time: 1.40 14 - Molten Dihydrogen Oxide time: 1.35 15 - Deep in the Aardvarks time: 1.50 -------------------------------------------------------- A look beneath the mask - 4.00 22 - 10001 Nordic Nerds time: 1.40 30 - People under stairs time: 0.30 39 - Comfortably Numb time: 1.50 -------------------------------------------------------- The Pfhor - 4.20 08 - Exit door leads In time: 2.05 09 - A Long Walk off a Short Pier time: 1.40 10 - Not *this* again... time: 0.35 -------------------------------------------------------- Distant Orbit - 6.04 28 - Prize payment Schedule time: 2.10 29 - Just a little further time: 0.07 23 - Iwannavacuum time: 3.25 32 - RevengeoftheLysolLady time: 0.22 -------------------------------------------------------- Fratemus Carnifex 11 - Core wars time: 2.40 18 - The Tar and Feather Club time: 1.50 44 - Sucking Cherries -------------------------------------------------------- EPILOGUE 35 - Hard Vacuum -------------------------------------------------------- : Agreed, but you also miss the fun of exploration - this style as you say is : best left until you have fully mastered each level and know them : in-and-out - otherwise you just miss too much. Yea I’ve already played it twice. I can however asure you that you explore the levels very well before you do this. : And they're B O R R I N G (Sorry Sidoh).
